Okay! The Gang are playing Rock Band.

Dennis: Vocals. Always on Expert. Stops to smirk at everyone when he perfects every high note. Whenever he doesn't 100% a track he blames Dee’s attempts to sing along and Charlie’s ‘insane grunting’ being picked up on the mic. Stands in front of everyone so he has more room to move (sway his hips). He gets to pick every song.

Mac: Bass guitar. He started on lead guitar Expert but he was the sole reason they’d fail almost every track, and still kept failing on Hard. He claimed it was because his ears are actually tuned better for bass and took it from Dee. Alternates between Hard and Medium based on how tricky the track is. Claims he has to do that because when the song is fast his fingers get too sweaty and slip off the keys. Refuses to sit while playing even though it would greatly help him. Is the reason they stop playing because he ends up breaking both guitars.

Dee: Lead guitar after Mac snatches bass from her. Wants to be on vocals but Dennis won’t allow it because he says she’ll fail them faster than Mac does on guitar (but it’s really bc Dennis can’t do any other instrument well). Loudly sings vocals when Dennis picks a song she knows she can do better. Actually near-perfects guitar on Expert if she's sitting on the ground. Spends any break she has attempting to trip or elbow Mac.

Charlie: Drums. Literally just goes fucking crazy on Expert, no one’s sure he’s even actually looking at the TV but he’s somehow always hitting 100%. Mostly squatting or kneeling as he plays, never sits properly. Makes weird grunting sounds that aren’t in rhythm with what he’s doing. When he has an easy run or a break he speaks completely normally like drumming takes no effort. Always fucks up selections by absently drumming while they're on menu screens.

Tetris 64

JP release: 13th November 1998

NA release: N/A

PAL release: N/A

Developer: Amtex

Publisher: Seta

N64 Magazine Score: 42%

Tetris 64 is Tetris on the Nintendo 64. The main mode is basic Tetris. No bells or whistles, just a slideshow on in the background and acceptable background music. The thing is, everyone already had Tetris on the Game Boy, which was portable so much easier to just play a round and it had the amazing classic Tetris music.

There are a few options in the regular mode, such as one where rows of bricks come up from the bottom as time goes on, so it does a decent job, but it has a few more, one silly and one rather interesting.

The silly one is Giga Tetris, where you have to place a mixture of giant tetrominos (one “block” is the same as a regular 2×2 tetromino). The variation is not particularly good, and it doesn’t feel like you can do that much planning.

The interesting mode is unfortunately one that I can’t play as it requires an additional piece of the hardware. You know the infamous Wii Vitality Sensor that never released? And how people said that it could be used for horror games or something like Tetris? Well, the latter already happened on the N64, using the Bio Sensor that plugged into the N64 controller and clipped onto your ear to read your heartrate.

Despite how interesting this sounds, N64 Magazine stated that they didn’t notice much different in this mode. The Bio Sensor wasn’t included with the game, yet it was the only game it was compatible with.

Normal Tetris is, well, normal, and Giga Tetris uses enormous super-blocks to completely destroy one of the finest game concepts ever conceived. Why do games publishers still think they can already make Tetris better than it already is?

Remake or remaster?

There are better Tetris games.

Official ways to get the game.

There is no official way to get Tetris 64.

alright i'll bite

how does your wii setup work?

(lavender is great btw)

so! the way the wii knows where you're pointing the remote is an infrared sensor, since it's 2006 and gyroscopes are too expensive or something. that's what the sensor bar is for, but all it does is produce infrared light in a consistently shaped area - the actual processing that figures out where you're pointing is all between the remote and the console. because of this, anything that produces a stable source of infrared light is a completely acceptable substitute for the sensor bar! two candles placed a bit apart from each other does the trick and after a while on that setup i can confidently say that it makes for a smoother and more accurate-feeling setup than my crusty 15 year old sensor bar ever did lmao
